“I Hate the Raiders….”: Emotional Farewell From Derek Carr Ignites Reactions From the NFL World

This fan thinks the Jets are right in saying so and gave their reason for it.

According to this fan, the Jets are saying this as they wait for an actual first-ballot HoF.

Another fan is astounded by the kind of approach the Jets have regarding signing promises.

This fan thinks HoF is a big reach although Carr is better than what the Jets have.

Another fan is convinced that Carr would never be an HoF.

A Raiders fan thinks the Jets aren’t wrong and the Raiders nation is sad to lose.

The Jets desperately need a QB after a dismal season by Zach Wilson. But is Carr the solution to the problems that saw the franchise finish dead last in their division?

The dismal 2022 season 

MetLife Stadium did not get to celebrate much in the 2022 season. The Jets won just seven of the 17 games they took the field in. And constant changes at the center did not help matters one bit.

Zach Wilson threw 1,688 yards in the games he played. The 2021 draft pick threw just six touchdown passes the whole season while the opposing defenses intercepted seven of his throws. Mike White didn’t fare well either, throwing just three touchdowns and four interceptions. So, a QB is the Jets’ utmost priority. Will Carr fare any better if he does join the struggling AFC East franchise?
